Meghan Markle is reportedly feeling the nerves ahead of her wedding to Prince Harry, as she has just nine days to go before the big day.

The 36-year-old actress is set to join the British royal family in just nine days time when she ties the knot with her fiancé Prince Harry, 33, at St George's Chapel inside Windsor Castle on May 19, and it has been claimed she is starting to get the pre-wedding jitters.

According to a source, the former 'Suits' star has been feeling "normal last-minute nerves" in the lead up to her big day, and has been leaning on her mother Doria Ragland and close pal Jessica Mulroney to help soothe her.

The insider told 'Entertainment Tonight': "Doria will be here to help Meghan relax in the last days before she becomes a [royal]. [Jessica will arrive next week to] help Meghan out with last-minute touches ahead of her big day."

The source also notes that Meghan is all set for her nuptials, as she "had her final [dress] fittings a weekend and a half ago."

Meghan's nerves come as it was revealed last week that her parents would attend her big day, with her father Thomas Markle - who was previously thought to be snubbed from the ceremony - walking her down the aisle.

Kensington Palace revealed in a statement: "The first thing I would like to share is that Prince Harry and Ms. Markle are very much looking forward to welcoming Ms. Markle's parents to Windsor for the wedding. Mr. Thomas Markle and Ms. Doria Ragland will be arriving in the UK in the week of the wedding, allowing time for Prince Harry's family, including The Queen, The Duke of Edinburgh, The Prince of Wales, The Duchess of Cornwall, and The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, to spend time with them before the big day.

"Both of the bride's parents will have important roles in the wedding. On the morning of the wedding, Ms. Ragland will travel with Ms. Markle by car to Windsor Castle. Mr. Markle will walk his daughter down the aisle of St George's Chapel. Ms. Markle is delighted to have her parents by her side on this important and happy occasion."
